Answer:

Length of the room should be 10.5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum area of a rectangular room is 84 square feet.

let the length of the room = x feet

Then area of the room = length × width

84 = length × 8 = 8x

Length x = 84/8 = 10.5 feet.

So the answer should be 10.5 feet

Answer:

Option 2nd is correct

10.5 feet is the longest the room can be

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Rectangle(A) is given by:

A = lw             ....[1]

where, l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle.

As per the statement:

A rectangular room must have a maximum area of 84 square feet.

⇒A = 84  square feet.

It is also given that If the room is to be 8 feet wide.

⇒ w = 8 feet

Substitute the given values in [1] we have;

84 = 8l

Divide both sides by 8 we have;

10.5 = l

or

l = 10.5 feet

Therefore, the longest the room can be 10.5 feet

A triangle has an area of 221.16 in.² the height of the triangle is 29.1 inches what is the length of the base of the triangle
Zigmanuir [339]
The formula you should use is Area = 1/2bh, in other words, area equals half times base times height. Now, substitute everything in, the equation should now be 221.16 = 1/2*b*29.1. This simplifies into 221.16 = 14.55b, now divide 14.55 on both sides, which leaves us to 15.2 = b. However, don't forget the units, which the answer (length of base) should be 15.2 in.^2.
